Garden Cultivation

Players prepare plots with soil, plant seeds, and tend them across watering and composting stages. When mature, crops are harvested as Flower NFTs with pigment statistics validated on-chain via the orng.wax oracle.

• Careful compost timing maximizes flower pigment yields
• Rare & epic seeds unlock higher chromatic potency

Workshop Extraction

Harvested flowers are transferred into specialized Extractor equipment. The extractor distills the floral biomass into fungible pollen tokens (Crimson Red, Azure Blue, and Solar Yellow).

• Extractor tiers dramatically accelerate extraction speed
• Level upgrades reduce cycle downtime and wear costs

Delivery & Cash-Out

Extracted pollen is contributed into the chromatic restoration reservoirs or collaborative Vector-M research tracks. Contributed pollen is permanently incinerated on-chain, and freshly minted PMT rewards are issued directly to the player's wallet.

• Instant on-chain settlement upon transaction confirmation
• Staking tier boost automatically scales your final payout

Autonomous Valuation Engine

Unlike static token games that suffer hyperinflation when token prices fluctuate, Pigmentia anchors pollen valuation to a decentralized benchmark. Each unit of pollen carries an intrinsic baseline value denominated in WAX. Upon deposit, the smart contract queries the live decentralized AMM liquidity pool (Alcor Exchange) to determine the exact conversion into PMT.

All mathematical operations execute with 128-bit precision on-chain, preventing rounding degradation and eliminating central pricing discretion.

The Purchasing Power Shield

This dynamic conversion mechanism serves as an automated economic shock absorber for botanical farmers:

• When PMT appreciates against WAX: The contract issues fewer tokens per pollen unit. This slows down circulating token expansion and protects secondary market demand while existing PMT holdings and staking balances gain value.
• When PMT trades at a discount: The contract issues proportionally more tokens per pollen unit. This guarantees that a player's physical farming effort retains its fair benchmark value in WAX equivalent, safeguarding player purchasing power.

Yield Accrual & Compounding

Staking pools allow players to lock liquid PMT tokens to accrue continuous staking rewards. Reward generation accumulates each second and can be managed through two dedicated on-chain actions available every hour:

• Claim (claimpmt): Mints and dispatches your accrued yield directly to your private wallet.
• Compound (compoundpmt): Reinvests pending earnings directly into your staked principal to trigger compounding returns without resetting your lock maturity expiration.
• Flexible vs. Locked: Flexible staking permits withdrawal after an initial safety window, while fixed-term locks offer substantially higher APR in exchange for committed lock durations.

Tiered Pollen Multipliers (Expedition Boost)

In addition to APR returns, the aggregate volume of PMT committed in locked staking positions defines your expedition standing. Higher tiers grant a permanent percentage bonus on all future pollen and genome contributions:

Peer-to-Peer Extractor Rentals

Owners of multiple extractors can list surplus equipment on the decentralized Workshop Rental Market (listext). When an explorer hires your machinery:

• Direct Upfront Lease Revenue: 100% of the agreed PMT lease fee is transferred directly to the owner's wallet upon lease initiation.
• Protected Asset Custody: Staked extractors never leave smart contract custody during the lease. Once the term expires, the owner can reclaim equipment or allow automatic renewal.

Owner Speed Royalties

Active renters frequently utilize PMT accelerators to bypass extraction timers and speed up floral turnaround.

• Automated Skip Royalty: Whenever your tenant executes a timer skip (skipext), an automated protocol royalty percentage of that fee is paid directly into your wallet.
• High-Efficiency Incentive: Upgrading your extractors makes them more attractive to renters, directly increasing your passive rental yield and royalty frequency.

DEX Market Ratio

Because pollen rewards are backed by intrinsic benchmark value, the live ratio of PMT/WAX on Alcor directly adjusts token issuance. A higher PMT price generates tighter token minting; a lower PMT price produces more tokens, stabilizing your earnings in real terms.

Dynamic Halving Divisor

The reward reserve features an activity-driven halving divisor. As cumulative game rewards unlock successive milestones, the emission divisor scales progressively. Early pioneers earn the highest baseline rewards, and emissions gradually tighten as the ecosystem matures.

Chromatic Reservoir Balance

The three restoration vats constantly monitor relative color volumes. Deficit colors gain a scarcity bonus (+% extra PMT), while over-supplied colors incur an abundance taper (-% adjustment), rewarding players who diversify crops.

Personal Staking Rank

Unstaked players receive base benchmark rewards. Committed holders staking in fixed-term lock pools enjoy tiered multipliers on all pollen and genome deliveries, significantly expanding profit margins.

Crop Rarity & Cultivation Care

Common seeds yield standard floral pigment scores, whereas rare, epic, and legendary specimens tended with quality compost deliver exponentially higher pollen quantities per harvest.

Extractor Tier & Speed

Higher tier extractors process floral assets rapidly, allowing active farmers to cycle more flowers per day and substantially increase daily token throughput.
